  1. With their hunched posture and bald heads, vultures are associated with death. Not the most attractive birds but since when are we influenced by looks? Amirite? Humans are always totally unbiased. I’m kidding. We’re kinda awful.

    Vultures – they are the unsung heroes, the cleaning crew in Wild. Without them, diseases would spread and the Maasai Mara Reserve would smell like a slaughterhouse. But in the last 30 years, even African vulture species have declined by over 80%. Pastoralists, angered by attacks on their cattle by lions, lace the carcasses with poison. 60% of vulture deaths have been due to poisoning. Follow a team trying to save the vanishing vultures during the annual wildebeest migrations.

  2. Vultures don't exist again in Nigeria. They used to fill the Nigerian sky but for the past 20-25 years I have never seen a single life Vulture. I only show my younger ones pictures of the beautiful majestic births. It is an unfortunate reality and something must be done quickly.

  3. Some of these poisons that are used could be banned and that would take care of a lot of the issue so they need to develop legislation in certain African governments to stop people from poisoning get rid of the poisons, and the problem will be eliminated just like DDT was eliminated in the United States. They can be done, but it’s very difficult in Third World nations.

  4. These birds play a role on this earth just like we do I believe 90% of all wild life is gone do to humans pollution and over hunting ones they are gone we humans are next 😢😢😢

  5. If the assault upon the vultures in Africa is allowed to continue we as humans will face a crisis greater than the World's Pandemics! There will deaths and suffering that will rival the black death horrors!

  6. I wanna know sum thing and I'm probably asking a dumb question tht I probably know the answer to. But I need to get a 2nd opinion on it. So wat' I wanna know is wen another vulture dies, do over vulture feed on the carcass of another vulture.. I would answer like, Duh! 🤦🏾‍♂️thts wat' vultures do, they eat wat' ever is dead.. or do they feel sympathy for another dead comrade 🦅 and don't eat them 🤷🏽‍♂️…

  7. These birds are so graceful when flying, even in hurricanes! I'm seeing less of these birds each year that goes by. There's many hunters that use cheap lead bullets to hunt and that poisons vultures, leaving what they kill behind. I just wish we all had respect for the Earth, give place for these birds to live. We need vultures here 💚
